I'm glad you didn't give up on 2003 bird when he was sick, he's turning out to be one of your best birds.

[@ian69i]

It's great to see them all coming back. 2003 is a really good bird, mate. As they all are

[@youriverstraete4986]

Won Fontenay last week with the old birds (3th out of 4352 birds in the province), my birds underway from Orléans, your video online for 36 sec. 3th view, first like. Its a good start of the week!

[@merv690]

It is obvious you are putting a lot of effort into your birds and videos both I have to say is paying off well done, and so glad that pigeon has repaid you faith in it, the race returns seemed much better with regards to a team effort , lovely to see your wife outside with you this will help with her understanding of the time involved with them congratulations

[@davidbambrough7390]

Great content and really enjoying the journey that you have allowed us to tag along in. Tremendous watch with a nice cuppa and a few cheeky biscuits! Already hooked and awaiting the Hexham race results, good luck and good health from the Northeast (NE10).

[@ZeginMakesMusic]

The KZbin videos about pigeons have much better editing than the quail videos. I've already ordered quail, but now i may pick up a breeding pair of these beautiful birds.

[@colinbrooks6290]

Lol, your waiting for the birds to arrive…. And going through your stress management….. the wait is the hardest 😬

[@JonesRacingPigeons]

As a Pigeon Fancier myself, it’s extremely interesting, watching the different fanciers with their Pigeons. Very interesting on your training method. Thanks for the tip on the color yellow.😮

[@neilwalledge3314]

You are totally right in trying your best for your birds. They will reward you, I sure 2003 will! I had young bird similar to 2003, I looked after him as you did. He ended up 1st club 1st fed 2nd amalgamation 13,476 birds. Keep up the good work really enjoyed your videos

[@howtotrainyourpigeon]

Blimey! Impressive

[@SouthwestWashingtonRacers]

Enjoy your videos and the fact that you’re keeping backyard racing alive. Keep it up!

[@BillyGeorgewalker]

Hello there Dan I have been watching your videos and really enjoying them and I have to say that it’s really refreshing to see a new starter like yourself coming into the world of racing pigeons buddy 👍👍🐦❤️ I live about 40 miles north of you in South Yorkshire Keep up the good work I was also thrilled to see your son and the Mrs helping too !things like this are so rare as the kids of today are so busy with computers and technology ect Please let us know if you would like to try any young birds Kind regards

[@dwartaitken8893]

4 Angels Loft. I like that eighteen or nineteen on a drop, good luck, I am watching the video later, just had to say something.

💕 great vid, beautiful birds, really enjoyed it, thank you.

[@johncallaghan8854]

Dan have you looked into the roundabout system? It's a great method for racing Cocks and Hens for a small team flyer like yourself. Your two section loft will work well with just some slight alterations. My father and I raced very successfully on the system for several years before moving house gave us the room to add another loft and go on to full widowhood. Great to see Charlie there with you watching your birds return. Good to see your birds coming so well, and keeping the faith with your sick bird paying off. I had a similar incident with an injured pigeon very early on in my career, a Blue Janssen cock returned very badly injured and a smashed up broken leg. Most of the older fanciers told me to put it out of its misery as it would never be any good again. That bird went on to win the Cambridge Fed, and the Section in the Peterborough Fed and a top 10 position in the Open from Northallerton (4500 birds) as well as winning several other races in its career and he went on to breed many good pigeons. Taught me a valuable lesson, to keep faith with your birds and give them a second chance. Another great video mate, very entertaining as always. My Dad's birds are at Alencon in France today, for their first channel race in the BICC Club, waiting on the news of the liberation 🤞

[@howtotrainyourpigeon]

Thanks. International racing must be a different league. I've been moving the birds onto a roundabout system. I know some say not to change the bird's system midway through the season but I'm quite happy to chop and change until I find something that works for me. Most are happy with the change but a few birds are stubbornly trying to get back through their usual trap. Time will tell...

[@johncallaghan8854]

@@howtotrainyourpigeon excellent, they'll definitely adjust to the Roundabout system throughout the season. My Dad gave up club racing, and now only competes in the nationals, sadly the fancy has really diminished in the Cambridge area, and the local club has a very few flying members, so he decided to to just concentrate on National races, his dream is to win it one day. He's come close and has several section wins and has managed 6th Open in a 5400 bird race, the best result of any fancier in the Cambridge area. Offer still stands for some young birds next season from our best, I'd love to see you flying some of our blood. Good luck for the rest of season mate, you're doing great. Sending them every week is definitely the way to go with yearlings (as long as they home in decent time) they need the education. Cheers

[@johncallaghan8854]

He's provisionally 4th Section 133rd Open with a 2 year old Hen, (sitting 5 days) he sent 5 Birds, has 4 home so far, he's very happy for his first race of the season. 👍

Great videos look forward to watching them well done great detail is well

[@francisli1057]

Very good clip, always like to watch yours, combined nice story around and sceneries, with focus on pigeons of course. Really good. Thanks. Good luck next race! 👍

To watch a pigeon drop in from a height is one of the wonders of this world that the human eye is lucky enough to see if you ask me

[@vinylsbest]

Nicely put Sir

Your racing out of your skin bro

[@madjttr]

Love your videos :)

[@andrewyoung9276]

Great video ... fab editing looking very slick

[@boatfishingscottyano]

I thought you were in with a chance of winning when the first bird was out in front. They came well tho well done

[@howtotrainyourpigeon]

So did I 😂

[@chriswilliams1639]

Might be a idea if u put a wire door behind your main loft door can leave main door open then and stop birds flying out when u go into loft

[@howtotrainyourpigeon]

It's definitely on my ever expanding to do list 😂

[@ssbrownracingpigeons37]

Again fantastic video Dan, really enjoy sitting down and watching! the time you take to add camera angles, b roll etc credit too you. 👏 The birds seem in great form Dan, and the youngster look great! Best of luck Dan 👍💪

Most flyers hav ETS on landing board so da bird hits board n scans before it traps bad trap bird still clocked

[@howtotrainyourpigeon]

Yeah I bet they do. It's not allowed under RPRA rules though. Got to modify my trap for this season

[@Rev792]

Hey bro what dimensions are your training baskets? I'm looking to build a few

[@dennischampness1174]

I hope you had a mask on when scraping out if not you should consider it sooner rather than later

[@williamgillan7182]

Wot club you in il have look on RPA 🕊🕊

[@DallasCaucasianSheperds]

Your loft needs more air to come and go for your pigeons to stay healthy. I would put more steel mesh all around.

[@desburke7786]

Well done DAN, I did tell you many times that there is no better sight than a pigeon coming from a hight on a blow home folding it's wings back like a rocket, if you had you're go pro in hand you might had caught it. The 2003 cock life story could have went any of 3 ways he could have died in the basket, he could have infected you're entire team after you reintroduced him and killed the lot, and I've seen it happen, or he could got back 2 health and done what he has done, dint all ways tink you can nurse them back but deffo all ways try, the main ting is 2 protect the healthy numbers from 1 or 2 others, so please God you get no sickness this YB season DAN, you no you could have taken him from his hen as he was about 2 tread her just 2 puss him off/make him even more keen untill the races get longer and tougher, and you need 2 be carefully with his hen using her as a trapper if he comes first and you let his hen go the might do the bold ting on the landing board and not trap for you so be careful there, as for a warm muggy day, a hot day or even a cold day, there all ways going 2 need elecytrolights in the water on return regardless of The weather DAN , keep them baby's learning and as all ways ENJOY

[@kevinclark4493]

Did yo ever get much much or zoolander and Brian not ryin
